LOL! So it does! BTW, Ed has turned in ARCH WIZARD (sequel to DARK LORD) to Solaris, and is hard at work on top-secret Realms fiction as I type this . . .
No, "top-secret" means I won't say more; down, scribes! Down, I say!

I got in an actual bar fight last weekend. Someone hit me with a chair, and someone else threw a cup of tea at me. The chair was not comfy, but the tea tasted all right.
Regarding the pre-Spellplague Border Kingdoms, are there any notable mercenary companies in the area? If so, are their charters recognized throughout the kingdoms, or only in certain areas? |

Dear Lady Hooded,
Can you ask Ed if he would be interested in writing novels set in Paizo's Pathfinder setting?
Thanks!  |

Ed will no doubt give you much more, but one of the frontpiece "flavor" quotes from his Border Kingdom series of articles refers to the Company of the Limping Unicorn mercenaries.

I actually spent some time reading through the Border Kingdoms articles (although I missed that quote), but came up with little regarding mercenary companies.
Regardless, I appreciate the reference. It's good to know a name at least, but I was looking for a touch more substance  |

Olore Ed and THO
Are there any restrictions on Cormyte nobles building castles and fortified manors in the lands they own within the Forest Country? Do they need to obtain a 'license to crenellate' from the crown or can they just build what they want? If they do need a licence how much would they cost? Would it need to be in gold or will service to the crown be acceptable payment?
Is there an official surveying and architect department in the Royal Palace that oversee new castles et al to ensure they meet the 'appropriate' (i.e. Vangy's) standards?
Can a rich merchant/sucessful adventurer build themselves a castle or are they restricted to fortified houses?
What would be the current (circa 1360 DR or so) fashionable 'castle type' be? - turrets and walls, motte and bailey, strengthened houses etc
What do 'common-folk' think of Lords buiding castles and grand houses? Do Nobles have the right to demolish common dwellings to make way for their own buildings within their own lands (or just demolish them to improve the view from their existing property  )?
And any other castle lore would be most appreciated.
Take care
Damian

Hello again, all. I bring you once more the words of Ed, this time in a speedy response to crazedventurers (the post just above this one).
Ed writes:
Hi, all. Sorry for the silences these last few days; it’s Canadian Thanksgiving and I have family visiting, to say nothing of having to nurse my wife, deal with forty dinner-plate-sized pies made of deer meat that the butcher just produced (my son-in-law provided the deer), and continue to steer through the aftermath of Brian’s death and the projects that were left bouncing everywhere when that master juggler so abruptly departed the scene.
Hi, Damian! Great questions, thanks for your good wishes for Jen, and as it happens I have the lore you’d like at my fingertips, so here we go:
Yes, there are restrictions on Cormyrean nobles building castles and fortified manors; their local house wizard (who is often a War Wizard) is duty-bound (standing orders) to report any hint or planning of such building; the War Wizards will then covertly spy from afar on the noble to make sure the noble fully and honestly reports all they are doing to the “local lord.” Those who don’t face fines, the dismantling of what they’ve built, and decrees forbidding them from building anything of the sort in future on said lands or in that area (such decrees are often dissolved later, upon payment of HUGE fees).
There’s no formal license that needs to be obtained or paid for, but there IS a prohibition on building anything fortified (and, as we know, on hiring warriors beyond a certain allowed number, too). Yes, plans have to filed “at Court” (with the scribes in the Royal Court who handle all building plans) of what is to be built, and those plans must be followed. Modifications and expansions are allowed, so long as revised plans are filed - - and both Vangey and senior Purple Dragon officers closely inspect all such plans to make sure a noble isn’t planning, say, a bombard-battery that can “overshoot” a town or a rival noble’s lands.
A rich merchant or successful adventurer can indeed build themselves a SMALL, simple castle (a “keep”), or fortify a small part of a mansion. They can also purchase a larger castle from a noble, and this in fact happens all the time; nobles who need lots of cash or want to build a larger, ritzier castle sell off their old ones to the waiting and eager rich merchants and successful adventurers (at any one time, there are always lots of the former and a handful of the latter). Please note: when you sell off such property, you are selling the land with it, in a “footprint” large enough to (except in urban areas, where streets form boundaries) ride four horses abreast around the walls without any risk of touching any part of the wall (if there’s a moat, obviously this four-horse-wide expanse must be outside the moat). So the noble who sells a castle can’t claim he or she still owns the land it sits on, and try to exercise any rights thereby.
As of 1360 DR (and for the three decades before that, and quite likely for at least a decade after that), the fashionable sort of castle is an outer “curtain wall” of stone with turrets and buttresses, surrounding an orchard, gardens (with at least a duck- or frog- pond), stable yard and block, guest houses, servant dwellings (often built along the inside face of the castle wall), and the main manor (a mansion of any size, often fortified before the building of the wall if it has any “solemn age” at all; in other words, if it’s three decades or more older than the outer castle wall, it will likely have been fortified with at least thicker walls and a single front tower with turret, for archers or crossbowmen to defend the front doors). The outer castle wall will always have a gatehouse, and often this will have a portcullis (moats are uncommon, and “wet moats” [as opposed to dry ditches] are rarer). Moats, by the way, are often stocked with fish, but NEVER used as refuse or sewage dumps; for that, there is often, if existing topography allows, a marshy area, widened into waste ponds, downhill from (and downwind of) the walled castle area, where middens are maintained. This is known as “the lees.”
Secret passages are fashionable, by the way, but tunnels to allow secret access through or under the walls are rare, and are mainly old (not currently built). That doesn’t mean there aren’t many, many rumors of every last large house having them, of course, but these tales turn out to be truth mainly in urban areas, where the cellar of one building can be easily and covertly connected to the next.
Commoners are used to such grand houses. Some aspire to them, some resent them (usually as good-natured grumbling, no more), and a few regard them as “safe craziness” for “folk what has more coin than their minds can handle,” meaning they’re at least building something and not using their wealth on something more dangerous and foolish. Nobles have the right to demolish residences on their own lands, but they must provide new AND SUPERIOR dwellings beforehand, so the people they’re dispossessing can move into the new digs in an unhurried manner. Note that one mustn’t think of this in real-world feudal terms; a noble doesn’t automatically “own” all land in the area their castles or ancestral seats are located; land is owned by deed (and most of it by the Crown) in Cormyr, rather than being held in feudal fashion, so the local noble is always the landlord. Rather, most nobles take care to buy up (again, urban areas excepted) lands for at least a bowshot, and more often, as far as they can see, around the homes they want to enjoy most. It’s servants and others dwelling in existing cottages and crofts on such lands that I’m speaking of - - and there’s an important wrinkle here: by a law passed by the last Rhigaerd, anyone who is a tenant and who gets moved in this manner, MUST get moved into a dwelling built for them, and deed to it PASSED FREELY TO THEM (in other words, they get a house for free).
So a noble who wants to buy up, demolish, or otherwise affect a dwelling they don’t own, must buy it from the owner in the usual fashion (usually by overpaying outrageously, if the owner doesn’t want to sell). If any dwelling a noble has made an offer on burns down, standing royal decree means the noble must rebuild it, for the current owner, at their own expense - - so arson is actively discouraged.
Please feel free to ask supplementals; I have lots more castle lore, but a granddaughter crawling all over me right now, and a host of smaller distractions (mainly having to do with food!) driving my aging brain to distraction. Thanks for the questions!
So saith Ed. Creator of the Realms and Cormyr and lots of castles (not to mention secret passages), too.
love to all,
THO

That great answer has set my brain to humming with all sorts of castle related questions, but for now I'm going to ask just one: Ed, you said "at least a duck- or frog-pond," and I have to ask; does that mean most gardens have several water features? Or other elaborate features like follies and summerhouses and gazebos (or whatever all of those things are called, in the Realms)? Or do most nobles have ponds they stock with various edible critters, for the kitchens of their households? (Like deer chases, only wetter? )
Thanks! |

Heh. MY castles question is this: do any or many or most nobles make their own wine and beer within such fortresses? If so, do any of them sell it in local markets?
Thanks,

Hmmm. I am moved to ask a slightly more sinister question: if I own a castle (and am noble) and DON'T want the War Wizards and Purple Dragons to know what's stored in a few rooms of it (either a prominent "missing person" or some contraband wares or goods), and manage to NOT act suspicious in any way, how soon is what I'm hiding likely to get found in the normal course of unfolding life in Cormyr? (How frequently are closed, not-used rooms in castles spied into by the authorities?)
And do you have a different answer to this, if I'm a rich merchant rather than a noble?
Thanks! |

Now, THAT is a question I'm eager to hear the answer to, too.
I'm also moved to ask one of my own, related to that: Ed and THO, we hear repeatedly about how much Cormyrean nobles hate each other (feuds, rivalries, et al) AND how much they hate the Obarskyrs. So my question is: if Noble of Family X witnesses Noble of Family Y breaking an "important" law, does he or she rat on their fellow noble to the authorities? Or do they keep silent because it's a fellow noble, and they'd rather not give the Crown any hold over any noble? Or does it vary from individual noble to individual noble, or family to family?
And does the answer change if the noble is seen by the other noble breaking a "trivial" law?
Thank you. |

| Here's a question that just passed through my head. If Storm really wants a kid so badly, and can planeswalk, why doesn't she just planeswalk to a world where they have fertility clinics? It may take the fun out of the process, but it gets the job done. |

Ed actually answered this before. Being a Chosen of Mystra carries with it the 'clause' that a pregnancy can only happen at the behest of the Goddess.
In regards to Storm, maybe someone can help my wandering mind here, but I don't recall it being said that she's never had children... |

Ed has indeed covered the subject of Storm and her "barren" status to some length in previous replies. I'd recommend that any scribes with an interest in such topics, perform a search through the compiled reply files for those discussions.

Seven Sisters tells us that Storm is indeed barren -- confirmed by the fact that she was unable to conceive with Maxam, much like during her other earlier dalliances. Whether Mystra has had any direct hand in this, is likely something Ed knows more about. 'Tis also likely that despite Storm's unique case, Mystra may indeed have the final say on whether she can get with child, just as with the other Chosen. We should remember also, that Mystra alone decides whether any of the offspring her Chosen are indeed "allowed" to produce, will display any aptitude for magic or become Chosen themselves. This particular aspect of Mystra's influence could have special meaning in Storm's case.

According to this, then, with the death of Mystra, if Storm survived, she may be able to have children.
Regarding Gavel's question: While I am no Ed, I think that if they really hate each other that much, they would blackmail each other. |

Menelvagor, I agree with you: I think it's highly likely they'd blackmail each other. But I think A Gavel was getting at: as a general rule, would nobles stand/band together as nobles against the Crown first and foremost, or would they use the Crown's might to get at each other? (It sounded, too, as if we were discussing "ooh, saw a handy thing I can use against another noble" and not "against the noble I hate more than anything else in the world, whose family has feuded with mine since before either of our Houses can remember.")
Of course, I may be entirely wrong, not being A Gavel, and so should probably hush up now. |

No, I think you restated my query "just right." Well said. 
I do, however, have another question, hinted at by Menelvagor's comment re. Storm and children: Ed, can you tell us anything general about how much of Mystra's decrees/prohibitions/etc. were hers alone, and how many were rooted in her understanding of how magic works, Weave or no Weave, and therefore might survive her disappearance, and continue to hold sway in the Realms?
Or is this going to be another of those "wait and see, find out the hard way" matters?
Thank you.

I have a new question, cheekily, although I understand that the pace of answers has regrettably slowed due to unforseen and unfortunate circumstances.
Best wishes for the wife and other things, Mr. Greenwood.
What are common Realms words or phrases for types of ships and what do they stand for?
Do the British Napoleonic War terms of cutter-brig(/brigantine)-sloop-corvette-frigate-ship of the line have any equivalents within the Realms?
How many decks do the largest combat vessels of the Inner Sea have? How much do they displace? How many men serve aboard? How many pieces of artillery?
I know we have Realmslore mentions of 'galleons', 'carracks', 'caravels' and so forth, but the terms are imprecise and often used in an inconsistent manner and/or confusing context (for example, I doubt very much that Cormyr's navy fields only caravels as stated in one source when another source maintains that they are able to use old galleons as training vessels).
Another thing, what about nautical terminology and slang? What do sailors say instead of the following:
"Davy Jones' locker".
"Ship-shape and Bristol-fashion".
"Burgoo" or "Chow".
And so on.
And finally, what do the various nations around the Inner Sea call each other in less than polite company? There aren't any Frogs and Goddamns, but Sembians have been called 'fat merchants' and 'coingrubbers' that I recall. Any more terms of that nature, national derogatory nouns? |

I think Ed has answered that last question before, Icelander, somewhere here at the Keep and (I think) in his "in character as a merchant" geographical overview of the Realms which was posted on the Wizards website as a "countdown" teaser for the 3rd edition FRCS book.
And I know Ed has said before (one instance: at a GenCon seminar I attended) that the "caravel," "cog," and other terms are (quoting Ed from my notes, now: "imprecise labels at best, in situations where everything is handmade and classifications are applied afterwards."

Yes, he has, maybe when talking to Jerry Davis about Cormyr's navy. MAYBE; I'm afraid I can't recall for sure.
I do remember that some real-world historical ship classification terms are defined by rigging, and some (Napoleonic in particular) by role and by the guns they were fitted with, so I doubt the latter would apply to the Realms.
Sage? Wooly? Kuje? I KNOW Ed has answered this before.

Spells stilled, Scribes all:
Oh, Master of the Realms, pray indulge my curiosity on the Mountain that is in the
elbow of the Moonsea Ride and the Northride. (Seems to connect the two?)
What would be some flack about it? Does it (or any other of the Desertmouth or the
Thunderpeaks) have snow on the top year round? Are there any ruins on it? What are some of the humanoid tribes there? What is it's name?
Also, have you ever given out the names and dispositions of the larger humanoid tribes
within the shadows of Forest Cormanthor?
And the gem house in Myth Drannor, in RoMD, you said it was there before the elves.
Can you give some elaboration.
Thanks be to the master of the quill.

Hello Ed,
I am trying to find out any information I can about the vault in Cormyr. I read somewhere that some things pertaining to it are under NDA, however any information from the smallest detail to a major revelation would be helpful to me.
Thank you |

Where can I find this conversation? I know Jerry Davis wrote down his vision of the Blue Dragons, but I'm unaware of specific Ednotes that inform that work.

It's likely enough that the Realms have their own classifictions, based both on the type of rigging and on tactical role. Various navies, for example, are nearly certain to have their own terms for the equivalents of 'single-masted messenger boat'-'small swift vessel usable for blockade-running, scouting or support'-'light combat vessel or scout'-'main battle vessel'-'heavy battle vessel'. It's conceivable that slightly fewer types exist somewhere, but in any nation that has had a navy for centuries, it's unlikely.

If anyone has links, I'd appreciate them. My current 'search technique' in Ed's notes is to manually open each individual PDF and then enter likely keywords repeatedly. A bit time consuming, it can be. |

| I have a question. Is Elminster's current ennui a reflection of how Ed is currently feeling? And if so, should we send him cookies? (Send Ed the cookies, not Elminster. But if you know of a way to actually send cookies to a fictional character, that's a pretty neat trick!) |
